I mean I can deal with it but its weird going from being 295 down to ~183 and now back up to ~195 (Negligible fat gain). I never got picked on because I was fat but now I get picked on for being in shape? (I'm still self conscious about the stretch marks)
I get comments like, "Steven you know you can be anorexic and still be muscular right? What are you doing? Purging?" from guys. I like adding in protein powder to MY food when I cook but all my girlfriend's girl friends give me flak for it (I cook for people a lot). "Ooooh he has to have more protein cause hes muscular, they might waste away.." And since they're not guys I can't really tell them to shut up cause well... they're not guys. Then theres the people that give me nutritional advice. I don't know what the hell to say to someone thats thirty pounds overweight and telling me I'm not eating right.
I don't know, sometimes it just makes me feel like I'm being a douche or something. Am I? Has anyone else had to deal with this?
